    Default Love it or hate it. <single pic>

    Despite everyone's advice I went with the two tone. I know there is going to be a lot of people who don't like it (probably the majority), but I wanted something different

    I personally love it... don't mind having a car that screams look at me for a weekend driver

    I think I would like it more if it didn't have the black on the sides.

    But overall not bad, it needs better pics.

    lol guys! The reason there is no pics from the front is because the shop lost the Nissan emblem for the front and had to re order a new one. Also fucked up the install on the driver side Z emblem and it fell off somewhere on the highway... swirl marks, and even burn in some places. So it will be going back to the shop for an extended period of time once my white car is fixed and can afford to be without it for a while...

    I will for sure get better pics when it's all done, just wanted to give you guys a peak at what is coming

    I know dude...but really they did me a favor in painting the whole car seeing as how it was just the rear end that was damaged. I've seen a lot of his work, and have faith...just gotta ride them a bit. Plus, no funds to take it elsewhere




    And lol @ punkr6 posting in my thread...you've been on my ignore list for a loooong time buddy

    Because I have the money to afford to risk fucking it up in an effort to be one of a kind. I like it, appreciate your opinion! Not everyone is bound to like it

    I think if you saw it in person I think you would like it. You might not love it, but I think you'll like it. And I've been toying with the idea of going with some black rims too

    When you do something as drastic as this...gotta expect people to hate it. I do honestly love it though

    I went to the garage to snap a pic to send you...but the car is outside. And...I'm too lazy to go outside

    The bumper is fully blue, I'll get a pic to you tomorrow in the daylight.

    Ah but see I wanted to keep an agressive stance with it, and it I did that it would have looked flat imo

    I think you'll see what I'm talking about better when I get more pics!

    That's cool, Eddie is the man.

    I realized my post sounded negative earlier, I didn't mean to come off that way this has just been a slow moving project . He really did do me a big favor, and a great job

    would look better if you kept the hatch, roof and hood black instead of having it extend to the sides and fenders etc...but you accomplished what you were going for so congrats
